Current customer rating:(2.05) based on 208 votes

Lotus Europa S2The Europa S2 was introduced in April 1968 and was available in the UK from 1969. It used the same 1470cc Renault engine as it's 1966 predecessor. but offered more in the name of refinement. including electric windows. a new interior. polished wooden fascia for the dashboard and fully adjustable seats.

This lotus has been in our family since 1987. first owned by my brother and then by me since 2007. It was originally brought by a friend of mine back in 1969. The car has had various work on it over the last 5 years and comes with 12 months MOT and is tax exempt. The interior is all original but does require some tidying. The car is not in concurs condition but is perfect for someone who wants to do light restoration as a project or just want an original Europa to cherish. It has collectors value as it is a rare black badge limited edition version. The badges were issued. just for one month's production. on new Lotus cars as a sign of mourning. hence the black colour. after the death of Double World Champion Jim Clark who was killed in April of 1968. at Hockenheim. Germany. while driving a Lotus Type 48 in a Formula 2 race. I have the car advertised else where and reserve the right to end the auction early should required.
